I know it's easy to say "call campus health services" or "call campus police" but these groups can be of widely varying effectiveness, to say the least. Not to mention if there's a religious component involved in the school.

Get her help and a listening ear ASAP, yes, but before we make blanket statements that doing one of the above will solve the problem, we really should know more about what they consist of at the OP's institution.
Better alive and pissed off than the alternative. Most universities have some kind of helpline you can call if you're concerned about yourself or someone else possibly committing self harm. This really isn't a situation where you can take it slow and "see how it goes" though. If there's reasonable cause to be concerned about her well-being, then it's time to get a professional involved. I don't know the exact situation, but I DO know that there's probably not an 18-22 year old member of the house who's qualified to handle the situation properly.
